This was our third tournament running a 2-stage format with 48 players double elimination, and the final 16 going to single elimination. Stop #1 and #3 went a bit longer than anticipated, so Stop #5 was adjusted to races to 7 instead of 8 in the final 16. This allowed the tournament to end at 11pm instead of midnight or later.
